ABSTRACT

Skin and soft tissue infections are usually acute conditions of inflammatory of the skin layers and underlying soft tissues. Skin and soft tissue infection are the most frequent types of infection, generally requiring medical intervention and contribute to morbidity and mortality in both primary care and hospitalized patients. So, the dramatic rise of antibiotic resistance, antiseptic agents can be potential alternatives for the prevention and treatment of SSTIs. In particular, they are commonly recommended in many global practical guidelines for use in per- and postoperative procedures. We are conclude that although nano-technological formulations have demonstrated potential advantages for delivering drugs; nevertheless, there is still scope for traditional formulations and further development of optimized topical formulations to address the rise of antimicrobial resistance.
